Prologue

Earth was considered a desolate planet and is used as a prison. Humanity lives on Mars in a single but always expanding city. Technology being what it is keeps us humans breathing. Our government is ruled by a man named Max Wexmen. He’s a twisted fuck and changed our entire structure. Now it is illegal to drink alcohol, do any drugs, have kinky sex, and, of course, smoke. Homosexuality was a death sentence. Women were to be kept for breeding. Dark-skinned men were used as slaves like back in the darkest days of history. The bad guys ruled the world and the good guys were the outlaws. That’s why we created the MC. We take our hover bikes and fight the injustice on Mars. The battle is going to be bloody.

The battle was bloody. We lost friends, lovers, and citizens, but the war is almost over. After all the explosions, the wounds, the pain, our goal is within reach. Wexmen is dead. Justice, president of the Underground MC, is leading us toward a more cohesive, hopeful future. We’re finally on the right path. But me, I think as the leader of the Outlaws, I’d be the happiest about the end nearing. Instead, we had Day-Si on the loose. The bastard peacekeeper was hiding somewhere in the city. And my lover, my Liam, was still in Earth prison, abandoned by the guards. While the population celebrated its newfound future, I set my focus on Earth. Welcome to the end.

Chapter One

My heart was ripped right out and I knew the wound would never close. This was a memory. The worst one of my life. Worse than prison, than my parent’s deaths, worse than almost getting my nuts blown off. This memory would kill me. I was in a holding cell. The four walls bare and beige. There was a cold, silver chair under my ass and a table in front of me, separating me from Liam. My lover. I stared at the man before me and tried to keep my raging emotions in check. Many years we danced around each other and when we finally broke down the barriers…

"It’s already done." Liam’s voice was soft like his control was about to shatter.

"You took the sentence? The words were hard to say. They found Liam’s blood at the bombing. If he didn’t rat the club out, then he’d get sentenced to fifteen years on Earth, in prison, alone. We can fight it."

Liam shook his head. His normally clean-shaven face sporting the slightest shadow. I already took it.

My heart lurched. I nearly fell out of the fucking chair. Liam. Gone. On Earth. I couldn’t talk, couldn’t speak.

"Stay strong in the struggle, Liam said quietly. I know you’ll save me."

I would, but how soon? We weren’t ready to win a war with the peacekeepers. What if his rescue took months? Years? I swallowed hard as the door opened and peacekeepers came in. Two. I could beat two. Liam. When had I gone all shaky?

They lifted him to his feet. His hands were chained in front of him. They won’t break me, Outlaw. They. Will. Not. Break. Me.

His words echoed as they pushed him out of the room. I couldn’t breathe. What could I do? I couldn’t let them take him. I stood, but my legs were fucking trembling. If I fought them, then what? Where could we go? How could we get out with so many peacekeepers here? As the questions roared loudly in my ears, no answers came. I watched as the door slowly closed. Liam looked back. His green irises scanned the room and found me. Then the door shut. I was alone. Liam was about to be carted off to prison on Earth. Fucking far away. I felt the tears spring into my eyes as I fisted my hands. We had to win the war faster. That’s it. Fight harder. Win faster. Maybe we could bring them down within the month. Even wishful thinking didn’t give that a chance. It would be months. Without him. Worrying about him. My Liam. I was in a fog as I walked down the hall. My heart was beating hard, the pulse in my neck throbbed. I heard the pod start up. The one that Liam would be strapped to. It would fly through space and hopefully, make it to Earth. Hope. A fucking ruse. Each step hurt, sending jolts of pain through my body. He’d be in that pod by now. Strapped down. Naked. Expecting me to rescue him.

Failure was not an option. I moved into the main chamber of the peacekeeper building. A haze seemed to close around me as I walked toward my MC brother, Deviant. Outlaw?

I went past him, holding on to my rage as best as I could. Breaking down now wouldn’t help Liam. I had to keep fighting like I knew he would. Just … get us home, Deviant. Home? My home had flown off into space…

I jerked awake as I had every night since Liam left. Gasping for breath, my face misted with tears. I angrily wiped
